What are 3 consecutive numbers of 48

1 answer:

Gre4nikov [31]4 years ago

7 0

Let the least be x - 2. Then the middle is x and the greatest is x + 2. Then add these up and it should equal 48. Like this:x - 2 + x + x + 2 = 48 3x = 48 x = 16
So the consecutive number of 48 is x - 2 = 14, which is the smallest number. Hope this helped and remember to mark as brainliest! :)

When 4 is added to three times of a number, the answer is the same as subtracting 2 from the number. What is the number ?

Orlov [11]

Answer:

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

let n be the number , then

3n + 4 = n - 2 ( subtract n from both sides )

2n + 4 = - 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2n = - 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

n = - 3

The number is - 3

I am in need of assistance.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

A. x = 6.08, x = -0.58

Step-by-step explanation:

$\displaystyle \frac{2x}{x-4}-\frac{2x-5}{x^2-10x+24}=\frac{-3}{x-6}$

1. Factor the denominator.

$\displaystyle \frac{2x}{x-4}-\frac{2x-5}{(x-6)(x-4)}=\frac{-3}{x-6}$

2. Multiply the leftmost fraction by (x-6)/(x-6) to get common denominators.

$\displaystyle \Big ( \frac{x-6}{x-6} \Big ) \frac{2x}{x-4}-\frac{2x-5}{(x-6)(x-4)}=\frac{-3}{x-6}$

3. Simplify.

$\displaystyle \frac{2x^2-12x}{(x-4)(x-6)}-\frac{2x-5}{(x-6)(x-4)}=\frac{-3}{x-6}$

4. Combine like terms.

$\displaystyle \frac{2x^2-14x+5}{(x-4)(x-6)}=\frac{-3}{x-6}$

5. Multiply the right side of the equation by (x-4)/(x-4).

$\displaystyle \frac{2x^2-14x+5}{(x-4)(x-6)}=\frac{-3}{x-6} \Big ( \frac{x-4}{x-4} \Big )$

6. Simplify.

$\displaystyle \frac{2x^2-14x+5}{(x-4)(x-6)}=\frac{-3x+12}{(x-6)(x-4)}$

7. "Cancel" out the denominators because they are equivalent.

$2x^2-14x+5=-3x+12$

8. Set the equation equal to 0.

$2x^2-11x-7=0$

Quadratic formula:

$\displaystyle x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

9. Factor using the quadratic formula.

$\displaystyle x = \frac{-(-11)\pm \sqrt{(-11)^2-4(2)(-7)} }{2(2)}$

10. Multiply and simplify.

$\displaystyle x = \frac{11 \pm \sqrt{177} }{4}$

11. Plug this into your calculator and solve for x.

$x=6.07603367 \approx 6.08$
$x=-0.57603367 \approx -0.58$

The correct answer is A. x = 6.08, x = -0.58.

What is the approximate area

podryga [215]

Answer:

2827.43in²

Step-by-step explanation:

formula for area of a circle is r²π with r being the radius (30 in this case)

we can plug in 30 for r to solve for the area

30²π

900π
